Farmer or Web Designer.
Who knew farming would be a high paying job? Should have followed in my grandfathers’ footsteps, not grandmothers’. (dad was a computer programmer)
business owner.
Bill Gates dropped out of college.
If you have a CCIE I can pay $75/hr, today.
I don't even care if you have a HS Diploma.
VMWare VCP, $60/hr to start.
I have jobs coming and going all over the West Coast, occasionally in FL, TX and other locales.
I had a boss tell me one time, “you will never get rich working for someone else.”
Smart boss.
I would caution people against going into nursing. It’s a very tough market for new grads - hospitals here are asking two to three years experience - long term care facilities one year.
Lots of equipment/fuel investment for farming however and weather luck.
Temp or perm.?
Im perm and telecommuting right now.
ccnp ccie written prep for lab ..
but doing network engineering/ architecture level work last 7 years..very heavy wan telco before that..now heavy lan r/s
Networking is a good gig
Getting the flight hours to be a well paid commercial pilot are going to cost more than a 4-year degree and require more years spent at low paying jobs to build hours.
And you aren’t going to get in from the military without first getting that BS.
High paying. Yea, if you don't look at it as return on investment. For a mere $2 million investment, you too can earn somewhere between $0 and $70,000 a year.
Contract. Where are you?
Project Manager.
This Tony Lee guy must be a paid hack for higher education. He’s lying and he knows it.
Plumbers, electricians, auto mechanics, etc. can make a lot more than some idiot with a four year degree in a BS major.
There are two keys to accumulating a lot of wealth. 1. Own you own business 2. make sure it's a passive investment that doesn't consume too much of your time (which leaves you with time to replicate the idea and your wealth)
“Sell to the classes live with the masses. Sell to the masses live with the classes.”
What he meant to say is the 4 year degree is the new high school diploma.
yeah...plus nursing is tough on the nipples...oh wait, what ? nevermind !
Exactly; all your hard work and brainy ideas go to someone who only benefits from it. These days a lot of businesses are like a collective, with everyone benefiting and only a highly energetic few doing the bulk of the work. Everyone here knows of who I speak.
